Rocket surgery is right. I've got to figure out how to shoehorn a TD-2 and a CO2 ejection unit into this little jewel while also satisfying the CG and CP requirements of the model because I want to use dual deployment. The CO2 system should help a bit because I'm planning on mounting it in the front of the nose cone. I'll let you know what I come up with. Edit: The plus side of this way is no black powder. = )
@@daytonpyroThat's what Rocksim is for.....the CP doesn't change. The CG and it's relationship to the CP does, and that's what's important. Actually with 2 stages the CP does change. I'll have to watch that too. = )
@@421rants2 yeah i signed up rock Sims 3-year course on how to use that program. lol. i only ask because to get the L1 they want you to point out where it is located. so, no idea how you figure that out. how do you know if you need nose weight or not? like if you add fiberglass to the fins that would add more weight which changes the CG i'm sure.
If you take a cardboard 2 dimensional cutout of your rocket and balance it...that's the CP. Like I said that's what Rocksim is for. Rocksim will give you that info. = )

one day ill figure out how to do the CG and CP and when to add or not add nose weight.

It's a weight thing. The CG has to be located in front of the CP or the rocket won't be stable or safe. 2" preferably. = )

I don't agree with tinning wire connections👎
i do agree. way more solid
